S2G Million Paper And Woodpulp
Plants To Operate In Chile
WASHINGTON. D. C. (P.A.U.)
Chile ise planning a paper and
pulpwood program believed capa
ble not only of suplying the coun
try’s entire domestic demand but
producing enough for exports as
well.
Back of the move is the Com
pahia Manufacturera de Papeles
y Cartones. a privately capitalized
firm, and the government agency
Corporation de Fomento de la
Produccicn. Initial financing is be
ing made through a S2O million
loan from the International Bank
of Reconstruction and development.
The Papeles y Cartones plant is
the only one of its kind in Chile.
In 1952 it produced 11,000 tons of
newsprint and 30.000 tons of other
paper and paper products. In site
of constantly increased output, the
company has been unable to meet
demands within the borders of
Chile.
In 1950, Chilean imports of news
print and cellulose pulp were valu
ed at about $5 million. Increased
production of pulp locally through
chemipcal as well as mechanical
rocesses is expected to eliminate

of making new paper products for
Chilean industries.
New plant construction will be
designed so as to permit expan

Odeca Will Go Ahead With Its Anti-Red
Plans Despite Guatemala's Withdrawal
SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador
'IP) Foreign Minister Roberto E. i
Canessa vowed to carry on his
fight to halt Communist infiltra
tion of Central America.
The dynamic. 41-year-old minis-!
ter said that if necessary he would
take the matter before the tenth
Pan American Conference, slated
to meet in Caracas, Venezuela,
next March.
He said the recent Communist
inspired withdrawal of Guatemala
from the organization of Central
American States (ODECA) which
he helped create, had not discour
aged him in his struggle against
Communism.
“Communist infiltration of Cen-j
tral America can be prevented I
through agreements among our
governments to bar the improper
use of traveling documents and the
spread of subversive propaganda,
and through the reciprocal ex
change of information on the ac
tivities of Communist agents,” Ca
nessa said.
“Even after Guatemala’s with
drawal, the ODECA can attain its
high aims, with the steady moral
and economic support of the re;!
maining Central American states,” j
he added.
ODECA was established in 1951
at a meeting of the Foreign Min
isters of the five Central Ameri
can republics, held here, under
Canessa’s leadership. Its chief pur
poses are to strengthen the bonds
linking the five small republics
and to serve as an instrument for
solving common problems.

malan government, within one
year after adoption of thp charte’-
Guatemala did call the meeting
but in the meantime. Canessa ask
ed that the agenda of the meeting
include adoption of joint measures
against Communist infiltration.
Immediately, the Guatemalan
Communist Party, which exerts
strong influence over the govern
ment, unleashed an attack on the
Salvadorean government in gener
al and on Canessa in particular, as
“reactionary and fascist."
Shortly thereafter the Guatema
lan government announced indef
inite suspension of its invitation
to the four other Central Ameri
can governments. The action was
followed some time later by Guate
mala’s withdrawal from the
ODECA.
Canessa voiced the hope that
such withdrawal would be only
temporary, since it was the result
of the “policy of one government
and governments are only trans
itory, lasting only a short time
in the lives of the peoples, where
as the peoples themselves always
seek their own well being and
greatness."
The foreign ministers of Costa
Rica, El Salvador, Honduras and
Nicaragua held a special session
of the ODECA at the Nicaraguan
capital last July, and in the so
called “Declaration of Managua”
pledged their continued support of
the fight against Communist infil
tration.
The resolution reaffirmed the
democratic principles of the Cen
tral American republics: recogni
zed the need to improve the social,
economic and cultural conditions
of the people as an effective meth
od of strengthening democratic in
stitutions and condemned Interna
tional Communism.
No Restrictions On
Foreion Exchange
lavs Uruouavan Bank
MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay (IP)
A recent ban on "futures” trading
in the foreign exchange market
is desinged to curb excessive spec
ulation and does not affect legiti
mate commercial transactions, a
spokesman for Uruguay's Central
Bank said.
Miguel B. Rognoni, assistant
manager of the Banco de la Re
publiea, said the ban, issued Nov.
9 was not intended in any way to
restrict free foreign exchange op
erations.
Officials of the bank are deter
mined to maintain the widest free
dom in this field and I can assure
that they never thought to curb
that freedom,” Rognoni said.
He stressed that “futures” trad
ing still is permitted in connec
tion with normal commercial op
erations.
Rognoni charged that speculators
took advantage of free conditions
here “such as no other country
offers”, to engage in a "series of
speculative maneuvers which ser
iously disturbed exchange quota
tions.” |

Guatemalan Foreign Minister About To
Be Declared Unwelcome In Costa Rica
SAN SALVADOR. (S. E.) An in
i terview. which took place between
president of Costa Rica, Otllio ma
te and the present Minister of For
eign Affairs of Guatemala, Profes
sor Raul Osegueda, which was
held in Panama during the recent
celebrations of the fiftieth anniver
i has been widely discussed in thea
I press of Costa Rica, El Salvador
| and Guatemala.
The meeting was given front
| page tractment in view of the con-
I ditions that preceded the interview
which go back to the good-will trip
j made several months ago by the
then President of Costa Rica, Oti
lio Ulate, to El Salvador, Honduras
and Nicaragua, after accepting in
vitations tendered by the chiefs exe
cutives of those nations.
According to Costa Rican papers
the Guatemalan Foreign Minister
instructed his ambassador to Cos
ta Rica, Colonel Rafael o‘Meanys
to extend an invitation to Presi
dent Ulate to visit Guatemala. Ul
ate accepted the invitation, stating
that he would go to Guatemala
after the forthcoming presidential
elections in his country.
When Ulate boarded the Salva
dorean military plane at the Ilo
pango Airport, on his flight to
Honduras, the Costa Rican presi
dent was informed about a state
ment given id the press by Guate
mala’s Foreign Minister Osegueda,
who said that his government had
no intentions of inviting any Cen
tral American president to Guate
mala “because there were more
important matters to deal with’’.
Because of this statement, the
government of Costa Rica declar

non grata” and recalled its am

Bolivian Ambassador Andrade
Refutes Hertzog’s Accusations
NEW YORK, N. Y. IIP) - Bolivian <
Ambassador Victor Andrade has |
! written a letter to the editor of
the New York Times, in which he
I answered another letter that the j
i Times recently received from ex- I
| Bolivian president J. Enrique Hert-1
zog Garaizabal.
According to the Ambassadro,
the charges made by Hertzog are
for the most part generalizations,
but holds that they cannot be over-
I looked, and that the clearest and
simplest way of refuting them is
jby referral to the letter written
by President Eisenhower on Octo-
I ber 14 to Bolivian President Paz
Estenssoro. In his letter President

UJ.-Panama
Talks Going OK
Dulles Says
WASHINGTON, (UP) At a press
conference Secretary of State John
Foster Dulles said that he is con
fident that negotiations between
Panama and the United States,
now underway, will be resolved
in an entirely satisfactory way.
Asked to comment on the Pan
ama-United States talks which be
gan nearly two months ago, the
Secretary replied that he is not
up-to-date in that matter since he
has pot seen the progress report
for several days.
He said, however, that in gen
eral topics of discussion in some
ways involve the Defense Depart
ment and the Army Department
even more than the State Depart
ment. He said that the negotiations
raised some every complex ques
tion adding that the is confident
that they will be resolved in ap
I entirely satisfactory way.
Arms Found In
Cuban Hospital
HAVANA (IP) Three men who
were said to be members of the
Orthodox Party were arrested here
according to an announcement
rpade by the Department of In
vestigation.
The police seized one machine
gun, two small fire arms and some
ammunition. The defendants, the
department said, said that the
arms belonged to an organization
called "Triple A”, headed by the
former Minister of Education dur
ing the administration of Carlos
Prio Socarras, Aureliano Sanchez
| Arango.
They added that they used the
I arms for target shooting. The
; arms were found in the Chemistry
| department of a private hospital.
Osegueda was an outrage against
j Costa Rica’s dignity, and specially
j in view of that fact that the invita
tion had been made in the presence
|of foreign diplomats in the Presi
! dential Palace of Costa Rica.
Relations between both countries
were therefore tense during the
last few months of Ulate’s adminis
tration, and when the government
of Guatemala announced that the
diplomatic mission to President
elect Figueres’ inauguration would
be headed by Osegueda, there was
much speculation as to the possible
attitude of the Costa Rican foreign
office.
The situation came to a climax
when Ulate and Osegueda met in
Panama during the celebrations
of the anniversary of Panama’s
independence. They did not even
exchange customary greetings. On
j the eve of his return trip to Guate
i mala, Minister Osegueda paid a
| visit to Ulate, and according to Cen
-1 tral American press reports, gave
j Ulate a thorough explanation of the
! matter. He told Ulate that he would
I always be welcome in Guatemala
as a great democrat and distin
guished newspaperman and invited
him to visit his country any time
he wanted. He also blamed Costa
Rican ambassador Toledo for “con
fusion” of the matter. “Neverthe
less”, the Costa Rican newspaper
Prensa Libre says, “President Ul
ate repeated to Osegueda that if
he insisted in going to Costa Rica
as the head of the mission to Figuer
es” inauguration, he would declare
him “persona non grata.”
Guatemala’s special mission to
the Costa Rican official cele
brations was therefore headed by
Humberto Gonzalez Juarez sec
retary of the presidency.
Central American political cir
cles consider that relations between
Guatemala and Costa Rica will
be greatly improved with Figures’
rise to power.
ivia.”
The Ambassador further on cit
the position adopted by Bolivia in
support of the United States and
its participation and voting record
in the United Nations as evidence
against the allegations of Hertzog,
who has described the present
government of his country as Com
munist. “Moreover,” he goes on
to say ,‘‘the Bolivian government
is the object of heated attacks by
the Communists both within and
outside Bolivia.”
Andrade rejects the charges
made by Hertzog against the
economic policies of the present
government. He rebuts the state
ment of the ex-Bolivian president
to the effect that the government
“has confiscated private property,”
by saying that “the laws of Bolivia
decree that the mineral wealth of
that country belongs to the Bol
ivian people,” and that “the gov
ernment did no more than cancel
the concessions owned by the tin
barons.” He reiterates that, in op
position to Hertzog’s charges, the
owners of all nationalized proper
ties will receive a fair price from
the government, and he ends his
letter by saying: “Hertzog forgets
the legacy which he bestowed upon
our country, when he left the
presidency in 1949. He left us a
legacy of poor government and in
stability: it’s no wonder that our
economic troubles , have reached
I mountainous proportions during
| the last four years.”
Anti-Reds Win
Primary Election
In Guatemala City
GUATEMALA (If) The anti-
Communist coalition headed by the
Partido Unificacion Democratica -
PUD- won the primary elections
in Guatemala City with a slight
margin over the Democratic Elec
toral Front - the official party coal
ition- according to unofficial press
dispatches.
The final results from the Elec
toral Boards had not yet been re
ceived.
According to incomplete returns,
as published in the local papers,
the Democratic Electoral Front
won, however, in most of the mun
icipalities in the interior. A bulle
tin issued by the Democratic
Electoral Front says that the left
ist coalition won eighty per cent
of the country's primary elections.
No incidents have been reported
up to now between the government
forces and the opposition. The
Democratic Electoral Front includ
es the revolutionary parties and
the Cojnmunist Party. It claims to
have been significantly successful
in various municipalities.
Curtailment Os Oil Imports May M
Cause Serious Shipping Problems 1
NEW YORK N. Y. (IF) ln a
I survey dealing with shipping and
| trade problems, the Journal of
Commerce reports that if the Uni
ted States were to curtail its im
ports of Venezuelan petroleum, its
trade would feel the repercussions, j
The article states that Venezuela
and Colombia represent “in all
probability the healthiest trade
areas served by the United States.’’
The report adds: “The greatest
problem confronting the shipping
companies engaged in scheduled
..cargo service to the north coast of
plouth America revolves around
j Venezuelan oil, which under ordin
ary circumstances is not even
i transported by these companies.
The shipping lines fear that pres
ent maneuvers aimed at getting
the United States to restrict its
imports of foreign oil will lower
Venezuela's dollar income, thus
reducing Venezuelan purchases of
general merchandise in the United
States. These purchases have pro
vided a source of traffic despite
serious curtailment of traffic on
other sea routes.”
The magazine goes on to say
that even this possible difficulty
cannot obscure the brilliant pros
pects which lie ahead for the ship
ping concerns, inasmuch as an in
creasing demand for Venezuelan
iron ore in the United States will
cause a tremendous expansion in
the transport of this mineral prod
uct by the end of 1954 or the be
ginning of 1955.

ing to information supplied by Mr.
Rodolfo Mitchell, vice-president of

following an interview between
him and Guillermo del Pedregal,
Chilean Minister of the Treasury
and Economy, the Chilean copper
situation is expected to be settled
this week, when the Senate has
finished consideration of the re- j

Mr. Mitchell added that accord

Mr. Mitchell didn't specify the
sale price for the copper, but he
indicated that “the world price of j
30 cents a pound can be defended, J

The Present Subjunctive and the Future Indicative.
The present subjunctive and the future indicative are not interch
angeable.
The future indicative is used in a subordinate clause expressing
a future action when the speaker does not know if any circumstance
will prevent from doing that action.
No se si ire (or podre ir) al cine. I do not know if I shall go to
the movies.
The present subjunctive is used when that future action is expressed
as doubtful.
No se si vaya al cine. I do not know if I go to the movies.
With the verbs creer (to believe) pensar (to think) esperar (to
hope), entender (to understand), and others, expressed in present tense,
the future indicative expresses more probability or certitude the
| present subjunctive.
Future indicative: Creo que vendra (Maria) I believe she will come
Present subjunctive: No eroo que venga. 1 do not believe she may

months of this year, Venezuela -
bought $335,300,1)00 worth of United
States goods and services, while
Brazil purchased only $185,600,000
worth during the same period.
The review adds that Colombian
purchases are much smaller than
those from Venezuela, but that
United States exports to Colombia
increased by 20 per cent during
the first eight months of this year,
reaching a total of $181,500,000.
Although coffee is the prime
source of dollar income for Colom
bia, that country has avoided a
“one crop” economy by diversify
ing its production to a much great
er extent than have most countries
with so-called agricultural econo
mies.
The report adds that new indus
tries are being encouraged and
created in Colombia, and now that
the new government has put an
end to civil strife, Colombia’s
economy is going forward.
Colombia shares first place along
with Venezuela on the list of coun
tries preferred by the shipping
lines. This preference is due not
only to the greater tonnage of ship
ping obtained with those two coun
tries, but also because the distance
itself is relatively short and en**
ables the companies to utilize a ~
small number of vessels in this
service.
